Start at the exhaust. Look for a pipe that goes to the intake. There will be a valve with a vaccuum tube, this is the EGR valve The EGR valve returns exhaust to reduce N.O. At idle it is closed, at 55 rpm it opens. You can test the part to see if it holds a vaccuum, otherwise that's about all it does. Most of the newer cars will also have a solenoid switch. Now this switch must be tested for ohms and if open will cause problems at smog test. A bad solenoid will cause a "fail"
egr valve location on a 1997 ford ranger 23l
right rear corner of the intake manifold by the firewall
Yes, it does have an EGR valve.
Under the hood
yes 2002 and later 30L are the only ones not equipped with an egr valve
On your 1999 Ford Ranger , 4.0 liter EFI , V6 engine : I believe the EGR valve is just to the left of your engine oil dipstick ( when you look into the engine compartment from the drivers side ) The EGR valve is lower down and has a round shaped top
Yes, a 1993 Ford Ranger is equipped with an EGR (Exhaust Gas Recirculation) valve, as it was a common emission control component in vehicles of that era. The EGR valve helps reduce nitrogen oxide emissions by recirculating a portion of the exhaust gases back into the engine's intake. However, whether a specific Ranger has an EGR valve can depend on the engine type and specific emissions regulations for that model year.
On the firewall next to the EGR vsv.
At the back of the passenger side on the engine.
On newer vehicals the egr valve is located on ignition emissions system and on the older vehicals it is located on the intake manifold..
The egr valve is on the front of the engine near the head. On a 6 cylinder it is on the passenger side, while the 4 cylinder is on the drivers side.
It's called the EGR tube.
